As mentioned in today's Happenings, Jonathan Richman's show at the Somerville Theatre is sold out tonight, but a little bird told us that a dozen or so standing-room tickets will be made available today. The Somerville Theatre box office opens at 4:00 pm, and the tickets probably won't last long.

This week we're trying hard to think about something other than how hard it is out here to be a pimp. Well, ok, maybe Bostonist is looking at the Oscars and just scratching our heads. We didn't know Jon Stewart could be that bland. We're still waiting to hear what Three 6 Mafia were wearing that made the camera all jakey last night. Now that we're done with the Academy we're looking back to Grammy....

You do know that Jonathan Richman is playing at the Middle East tonight, right? It's always fun to trace the influence that Richman's music has on writers, musicians, and filmmakers. Bostonist is unsure as to whether the show is sold-out or not, call our boys at the Middle East. The show was underpublicized and it's intimate, (relevant IMDB quote from our man, accuracy always questionable: "I like it when a gig is intimate. I don't think it's good to go out at night and have everything be all alienating, so if people come to the show, let's have some fun.") but then again, the man is a legend and has one of the best albums ever under his belt. Radio on!
